In the last couple of week both CNN and Fox News had posted stories that they later retracted. Here's the difference.
CNN took down the story and posted a retraction within in a day. Immediately launched an investigation. Three people lost their jobs. And going forward any story related to Russia must be approved by two executives before being posted. Now, keep in mind, the story has not been proven to be false. CNN decided that they did not have sufficient corroboration to stand by the story.
Fox News reported a story about Seth Rich. Within hours the story was debunked and proven to be false. Fox News left the story up for 6 days before taking it down. No investigation. No one lost their job. And, in fact, Sean Hannity has continued to promote the false story.
CNN is a real news site that is held to real standards. Fox News is a propaganda site and no one expects them to be held accountable.
